Pros

Nice perks - Monthly Free Lunch - Sometimes Free Beer - Basketball Court (belongs to building not Nexon)

Cons

Everything else is bad about Nexon. Unless you're ready for your job to be kissing up to specific people in management I advise to avoid this place like the plague. It rarely matters how well you do in the company, if you're not "in" with the right group of people you're not going to move up. Sadly because of this the right people are not in management. The company is known for setting up people to fail who do not follow the wishes of management, even if what management is doing is a bad idea. The company is constantly in organizational shifts, and due to this most employees are in on the joke that every 6 months Nexon will change. Making it in the western market could be easy for this company, if they actually focus on trying to make it here. There is a lot of talent and potential here, but it's wasted because the company seems to only want certain people to succeed. People in the company are currently leaving in droves to look for better opportunities and for a company that will actually appreciate them.
